Algebra.Com's Answer #729222 by josmiceli(19441) You can put this solution on YOUR website! I should end up with a square to maximize area. \n" ); document.write( "The perimeter is \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "----------------------- \n" ); document.write( "The area, \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "------------------------ \n" ); document.write( "The formula for the W-value of the vetex, \n" ); document.write( "( maximum in his case ) is \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "and \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "--------------------------- \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "So the max area is a square. You can calculate \n" ); document.write( "and check my math. \n" ); document.write( "Note also: \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "as it should \n" ); document.write( " |
